A life-changing read 8 Feb 2008

By Mr. Henry C. H. Lestrange

Format:Paperback

This is the book that inspired "The Good Life" TV series, and is a fascinating and wonderful insight into the life of John Seymour as he becomes self-sufficient. It is the most uplifting and entertaining book and I would recommend it to everybody.
